How does Annie treat the soldiers visiting the mayor's home in The Moon Is Down?

Annie is perceptibly upset when the soldiers visit Mayor Orden's home in the first act of "The Moon is Down." She has heard about the deaths of the other soldiers that occurred shortly before the visit, and she is still upset by the time that the soldiers arrive on the back porch.
Her first reaction is to treat them as hungry animals who were drawn to the house by the smell of sustenance (in this case, coffee rather than food). She proceeds to object further to their presence on the back porch, even though she has already been told to control herself. She is upset that the soldiers are looking at her, and she begins to lose her temper.
Annie's fear and anger and resentment capture the spirit of opposition to the soldiers. The Mayor, for his part, is concerned about the risks of open defiance to the soldiers on the one hand and openness to collaboration with them on the other.
